To express an equation of n in terms of m we can follow these steps:

7m + 2 = 6n - 5

1. add 5 on both sides of the equation:

7m+2+5=6n-5+5

2.Combine like terms

7m+7=6n

3. Divide both sides by 6

(7m+7)/6=6n/6

Then we get:


\begin{gathered} (7m+7)/(6)=(6n)/(6) \\ (7m)/(6)+(7)/(6)=n \\ n=(7m)/(6)+(7)/(6)=(7)/(6)(m+1) \end{gathered}

Then, f(m)=7/6(m+1)
